Product Description

Though her Lexus may be broken down on the California freeway, Jessi Teresa Blake is no damsel in distress. Rich, smart, and beautiful, JT, or "Lady Blake," as she is called, is one of the toughest sports agents around. She's negotiated megabucks contracts for every superstar in the business, and only the most confident of men can match wits with her. Men like Reese Anthony, the impossibly sexy trucker who gives her a lift back to Oakland.

5.0 out of 5 stars All the Reasons to Love... Just One More Time, October 29, 2007
By Priscilla C. Johnson "bookmaniac" (Baltimore, Maryland USA) - See all my reviews
  
Jessi Teresa Black is Los Angeles' toughest and sexiest sports agent. JT or Lady T is able to negotiate contracts, quote players' stats, play a mean game of Playstation Madden football and keep her sometime, overprotective, multimillion dollar, clients in line without breaking a sweat. Every available bachelor, and some married men, have tried to win the hand of Lady T but no one has been able to match wits with her until she meets Reese Anthony.

While driving an eighteen-wheeler on California's I-5 to San Francisco, Reese stops to help what appeared to be a damsel in distress. He quickly learned that not only was she beautiful but she was also very knowledgeable of sports and cars. Reese offered JT a ride back to Oakland and the sparks immediately began to ignite. But, there was more to Reese. He was not just your average truck driver. He was actually an ex-Chicago cop turned attorney, who is also the CEO of his family's international trucking company. Reese was also offered a position as head of the NFL's Security division to investigate a murder. Little did he know, he would also have to protect JT as well.

Beverly Jenkins has put together another winning story of two very confident people who must learn to trust and take a chance on each other. The reader immediately becomes involved in the romance of Reese and JT from their first encounter. Ms. Jenkins was able to build their relationship as Reese tried to solve a murder that could cause great damage to the NFL league. The bonus to the story - a sound track from Frankie Beverly and Maze. Throughout the story, Frankie Beverly and Maze was referenced with his golden voice. Ms. Jenkins fans will also love that she has connected both characters to previous characters, Jessi Rose and Griffin Blake, and The House of LeVeq, from her historical novels.

You can not go wrong with reading any book by Beverly Jenkins and music accompanied by Frank Beverly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deadly / Sexy, November 2, 2007
Another great book by Beverly Jenkins. Now if you have read Topaz we met Grace Blake & Lorlie Reed could you guess what type of granddaughter they would have. NO I couldn't but trust that I was not disappointed. Meet Jessi Teresa Black is Los Angeles' toughest and sexiest sports agent. JT or Lady T as her players call her. play a mean game of Playstation Madden football and keep her sometime, overprotective, multimillion dollar, clients in line without breaking a sweat. Now with this type of lady I guess you can guest what type of MAN she need meet Reese Anthony.

While Reese was driving an eighteen-wheeler on California's I-5 to San Francisco, Reese came across what to appear a damsel in distress. He quickly learned that not only was she beautiful but she was also very knowledgeable of sports and cars. Now Reese was not just your average truck driver. He wear several HATS Also through out the book we get to listen to Frank Beverly & Maze which will make you pull out your album.

I tell Reese and Jess are a HOT couple and you will not be diappointed in them.

Great job Beverly

Louise

5.0 out of 5 stars (RAW Rating: 4.5) - No damsel in distress..., March 15, 2008
By The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews
Jessi Teresa Blake has made her mark in a male dominated arena, literally and figuratively. J.T. is a self-made independent woman, who has not been mesmerized by the many alpha males. She is a sinewy professional sports agent, and her high-profiled clients love her style. So she is a bit taken aback when her radar goes off the Richter scale while she is being assisted on the highway by a ruggedly handsome trucker. She has to corral her emotions, and focus her attention on her safety and her stalled Lexus, because her car has been tampered with. But once her car is taken care of, J.T. will have to deal with her reaction to this stranger.

Reese Anthony is more than a trucker; he's an ex-cop, an attorney, and a partner in his family's multi-million-dollar company. He sees a woman on the side of the road, and being the gentleman he is, stops to assist her. Reese's emotions are having their own tug-of-war, because he recognizes who J.T. is, and up close and personal, she is fine with capital letters. Reese and J.T. do some verbal sparring as they proceed to her destination and Reese lets her believe he is just a trucker. But the ruse is over when days later, he handles business for the football commissioner and meets J.T. again. His investigation forces him to work with an interesting and interested J.T. As they are getting better acquainted, J.T.'s life is threatened. Reese goes into overdrive, he is ready and willing to offer his protection, but what he really wants to do is fill her nights.

DEADLY SEXY kidnaps readers and takes them on the ride of their lives. Coupled with the warmth of a man who knows how to court a woman and the half-hearted struggle of a woman who knows her heart is doomed, readers with enjoy the ride. From embittered competitors to overzealous team owners, Jenkins tightens the suspense. J.T. was first introduced as the sister of Max from Sexy Dangerous and she does her sister proud. DEADLY SEXY also shares vintage family history from some of Jenkins' previous books and introduces a family of men whom I think readers will meet again. I did not want the story to end.
